I know you don't want to hear this, but hopefully it's not a rear main seal infant mortality issue. How much and what kind of oil are you filling it with? One way to localize a rear of engine leak is to raise the engine to a 30 degree angle or so so the oil is now sitting in the rear of the pan and leave it there for a few days. Check for dripping frequently. If it starts to seep get under the car and try to identify if its from the pan or possibly from the RMS. A RMS leak will likely leave a 'starburst' pattern on the engine side of the crank flange, but you will only see that after some extended driving and checking. I hate engine leaks. Love the car, good luck .
